Another knight admitted, "Yeah… it's true. He was able to tame a Wyvern? No human has ever done that. Beast tamers can only control birds or some weaker creatures."
Nolan looked at the knights calmly. "Well, can I be on my way?"
The knights were still murmuring nervously among themselves, unable to focus after witnessing the King Wyvern and its tamer.
"Well, you guys can keep talking about how scared you were of the wyvern," Nolan said. "But I think I'll be going now."
"Wait!" one knight called, stepping forward. "Don't go! We still need to talk to you." He reached out and grabbed Nolan's arm.
Nolan looked down at the hand on him, his eyes sharp. "Let go," he said coldly. The knight's grip loosened immediately, fear flashing across his face. Nolan walked past him without another word. None of the knights dared to stop him again.
Lyra glanced at him as they walked. "I rarely see you get angry. Even though it hasn't been that long since we met."
